#12 of 37 Re: End of the model year [cowbell] by jerrys2 Aug 04, 2007 (5:57 am)
Replying to: cowbell (Jul 27, 2007 8:13 am) I think $33,500 is realistic and perhaps you could do a little better. Depends what dealer has ON HIS LOT and if you make a serious offer on or about the last day of the month. 08's should arrive by mid Sept. so end of Aug shuld be a great time to deal. I plan to follow this approach and deceide between the '07, '08, or an '08 Lexus 350.   What is the X-plan?   Jerry Replies to this message: cowbell (Aug 05, 2007 7:55 am) jerrys2 (Aug 05, 2007 9:35 am)

Replying to: jerrys2 (Aug 04, 2007 5:57 am) Sorry about the confusion. The X and Z keys are right next to each other. I meant the Z-plan.       Your approach is probably the way I'm going to go to. I too also looked at the Lexus (ES350 I'm assuming) as it was the only other car that had all the features I wanted. Actually, it didn't have the folding rear seats which sold me on the Lincoln.       I think there will be some cars with the configurtion I want left some the end of the month. There are at least four of them by where I live here in metro DC. I'll let you know how I do. Replies to this message: jerrys2 (Aug 05, 2007 9:35 am)

Replying to: cowbell (Aug 05, 2007 7:55 am) Yes, it is the ES 350, and I am leaning towards the Lincoln however. It is pretty much the same car,with the folding rear seats and a great sound system, at 2k to 3k less.   The ES 350 has had a ton of transmission problems and other issues discussed the the Forums section on the Lexus web cite. Lincoln owners on the other hand love their cars as evidenced on this Forumn.   Good luck with your search, I bought my first new car in VA many years ago ( '59 Chevy ) from Rosenthal Chevrolet, assume they are still in business. I will be away until the end of the month and then I plan to do some serious shopping.   Jerry
#15 of 37 Just leased 2008 Mkz by cptlapcat Sep 02, 2007 (5:13 am)
Just leased 2008 Mkz with chrome wheels and THX for $30,438 after rebate. Best part of the deal, I was able to get out of three months lease payments on my old town car.

Replying to: cptlapcat (Sep 02, 2007 5:13 am) Congrats! Sounds like a good deal. Where did you make purchase? Only rebate I am aware of is $500, are there others? Jerry Replies to this message: hardhawk (Sep 02, 2007 10:12 am) cptlapcat (Sep 03, 2007 6:14 am) jerrys2 (Sep 03, 2007 7:53 am)

Replying to: jerrys2 (Sep 02, 2007 8:29 am) You get an additional $1000 rebate if you currently have a Town Car.

Replying to: jerrys2 (Sep 02, 2007 8:29 am) Bought it at Mayberry Lincoln Mercury in North Hollywood, Ca. The dealer said he was giving it to me at $500 over invoice (don't know if that is true but it sounded good) minus $1000 for the Town Car rebate.

Replying to: cptlapcat (Sep 03, 2007 6:14 am) I guess I won't get to Mayberry since I am in Western Massachusetts. $500 over invoice seems reasonable for this stage of the model year. Good luck with your new car!   Jerry

#21 of 37 Early 2008 MKZs do not have all standard equipment by davidjamesfren Nov 27, 2007 (4:11 pm)
Buyer be ware. "Ford 1" 2008 MKZs do not have the Microsoft Sync installed. Ford 1 models were made through early Oct or so. Lincoln's marketing material, tv ads and website show Sync as standard; it is not always. there is no way to know unless you ask; they do not offer the information. Literally, there is no way for you to know without asking. the phone button is even on the radio, but does not work.   Very disappointing that a manufacturer with such a great car would have such confusing and some would say deceptive advertising practices.   Sync adds 395 to to the MSRP for "Frod 2" cars shipped with it installed. Edmonds is silent on the issue.   Great car, but disappointing buying experience.
